Raised in a conservative Muslim family in Atlanta, the outspoken and brilliant Zarina routinely clashes with her traditional father and sister. Zarina’s one outlet – her recently-completed book about Islam, the Prophet, and their treatment of women – threatens to tear her family apart for good. With humor and ferocity, Ayad Akhtar’s new play examines the giant chasm between our traditions and our contemporary lives.
